[QUOTE="Apache, post: 354272, member: 828"] Pressure washers seem to quote usage of 400-600l per hour. Not something I've ever tried to measure, but on a busy day it could be used for up to an hour in 5 minute bursts. Max 500l per day, that's 3000l over a week if busy. Unlikely to get usage that high, but it's easy even in spring to go a couple of weeks without significant rainfall. Hence a 5-10,000 reservoir is where I was thinking. Pouring a couple of litres of dairy hypocholorite down each month is fine by me to keep the water fresh! [/QUOTE]
